Pick this Thai restaurant and you'll not regret it! It's your money well spent! Come in it's nice & cool and clean. Everything we ate was delicious. Served promptly. Parking is limited but you can park on street.
Had lunch here today after church. First, the parking situation is a bit difficult. There is a very tiny lot that can fit about 7-8 cars, minus handicap spots, so if you want to bring your own car, be prepared to wait or find street parking. The restaurant in itself was fairly small but was packed. The menu is pretty standard with your basic ramen, rolls and small appetizers, as well as various rice bowls. I saw that they had a summer ramen, a cold chicken yuzu ramen. I wanted to try it, as it was extremely humid today. I liked it, the ramen noodles were really hard and the broth was zesty with yuzu juice as well as yuzu paste and slices of lime and lemons. Definitely a unique experience. I tried the broth of the spicy tonkotsu and the mayu. Both were very good and deep in flavor. If the parking wasn't too bad, I would come here more often, as the ramen was definitely good and the prices were even better.
Yum! So glad to have stumbled upon this place on yelp. The place is cozy, and there is a very small parking garage lot shared among others in the plaza. Also street parking. The portions are a bit smaller than expected for the price, the toppings (bamboo, wood ear) were sparse, and a bit on the saltier side, but the ramen is filling and full-bodied flavorful! They have egg sando that I'll have to try next time!
Ramen was good. Got spicy miso and my friend got tonkatsu. Parking can be a little tricky because the place is small and it shares its spots with other businesses.
My bf and I were in LA for a show at a nearby bar but got there early and hadn't had dinner so we decided to check out what was near by. Susuru Ramen Bar was such a great surprise. Saw the high reviews so had to check it out. Susuru Ramen Bar is located on the corner of Hollywood Blvd and N Kingsley Dr. The lot is small sharing spaces with other restaurants so your best bet is street parking, which can also be tricky especially later in the day. The restaurant is small, with the register counter as the first thing you see walking through the door. There's bar seating against the wall, and 2-3 tables for groups of maybe 4-6 people. The lady manning the front counter as well as taking orders and serving was fantastic. Very friendly and checked up on all tables through out the night. For ramen, my bf got the Tonkotsu ($1 extra for spicy), and I got the Mayu. I see why it has such high reviews, both were delicious. The roasted garlic oil was amazing and complimented the pork broth. The seasoned soft-boiled egg was our favorite part, not just lightly seasons either. It was sweet and savory with each bite, and the creaminess from the jammy yolk was fantastic. The charred cha siu slices had a slight sweetness too, and the fat through the slices gave it this wonderful melt in your mouth, mouth feel. The tonkostu spicy used the same broth just added the chili oil to it and gave it a good bite. The noodles had a nice chew to it. It was just the perfect bowl on a chilly May evening. Definitely worth checking out for a great bowl of ramen.
Stopped by here on a recommendation from my Yelp friend (Thank you, Eric H!). Susuru Ramen makes delicious ramen! Their signature ramens are the Tonkotsu and Khao Soi Ramen. Vegetarian ramen also available for non-meat preference. We tried over a few dishes and all were very good! The ramen broth was balanced and their noodles were cooked to perfection. The menu has a nice selection of appetizers, rice bowls, and sushi rolls if you don't feel like ramen. This place has hints of Thai ownership, but with a Japanese soul. The Chef knows what they are doing! Am impressed. Susuru Ramen is solid. Credit and cash accepted. Parking is tight in the area (Thaitown-Hollywood) is the only downside.
A tiny little spot, but the flavor is full size. It was lunch time and I was hungry. I started off with the Chicken & Pork Gyoza, and the Spicy Salmon cut roll. The combination of chicken and pork in gyoza was new for me, and these were very tasty. The Spicy Salmon Sushi was also good , and the pieces didn't fall apart, as they so often do in Ramen shops. The main course was Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen. I asked for spicy ramen and that's exactly what I got. The broth had some real heat to it, and they did not go lightly on the chili paste. The noodles were nicely cooked, the egg was perfect, and the pork chashu was tender and full of flavor. My only question, is that with all this good food, served with real tableware and utensils, all they had were little plastic containers to use as dipping/sauce bowls? Regardless, It was a very satisfying lunch. The service at Sunsuru was friendly and helpful, and the prices are very reasonable. $15 for the Ramen and $8 for the sushi roll and the Goyza. Susuru Ramen Bar is definitely worth a visit.
I had the spicy miso ramen which is great! Loved the flavor. Would always recommend more meat! Always drive by this place and never noticed it. Service was good. Some inside seating, no outside seating. It's a chill little somewhat dive. Good for the price. Would I come back, Yes.
Went here with my Sister and brother-in-law. Loved it so much I came back with friends. Hands down, the best Ramen I've ever had. The Mayu is so silky and flavorful. Both times, service was excellent! Water was constantly refilled and they checked in regularly to make sure everything was good. Restaurant was small, clean, and inviting. It's about an hour from where I live, but I'll definitely be going back!
Love the ramen! It's a small spot right off Hollywood Blvd with great ramen. And the price is inexpensive but good quality. The staff are really friendly and have always had a good experience.
Oh my I don't know where to start. This cute little ramen shop is hidden in a small corner mall. The decor is nothing crazy but it creates a cozy homey feeling in the restaurant. I ordered the spicy miso ramen and I was blown away, the broth was perfectly balanced and packed with flavor. The pork chasu was the most tender chasu I've ever had in LA. This ramen was better than some spots I had in Japan! Service was quick and friendly and this place is affordable compared to other ramen spots in LA. I will 100% be coming back in the future.
I haven't had ramen in a while and Susuru was the perfect re-entry. The shop was packed on a friday evening, giving a bustling and intimate feel. Yes the Mayu was on the heavier, saltier side, but not overwhelming. The chashu, sliced thinly, was melt in your mouth, and the black garlic gave that perfect umami.
To start off our server was nice and kind I didn't happen to get her name but I hope she sees this and knows! Susuru is a better ramen for me compared to tatsu as of recently. It's packed with so much flavor in either the mild or spicy option without being heavy which makes you feel sluggish afterwards. The takoyaki was full of so much flavor, texture and just a good complement with the ramen.
Reviews are largely positive. People highlight the flavorful ramen broth, friendly and attentive service, and a cozy and inviting ambiance.

Creamy and light tonkotsu was exactly what I needed today. I liked the meat; it contrasted nicely with the soup. Service was great. We were offered water refills a bunch of times. The takoyaki was mostly batter, and didn't have much bonito on top. I'd prolly skip that next time. read more

Stopped by with my boyfriend for a late lunch and started with the Takoyaki. They were nice and crunchy on the outside with a great texture. I wasn't a huge fan of the sauce it was a little too sweet and BBQ-like for my taste but my boyfriend really liked them! We also ordered the Mayu and Spicy Miso ramen. Both had a generous amount of noodles, but the noodle-to-broth and topping ratio felt a little off. I also swapped my protein for chicken, but was disappointed that there weren't many toppings overall. The portions were filling, but unfortunately, the ramen was just okay and didn't really stand out. For the price, I expected a little more, and some of the ingredients didn't taste as fresh as I would have liked. Overall, not bad, but probably not somewhere I'd go out of my way to visit again. read more
This ramen spot is really where it's at! Nestled in the heart of Thai Town, Susuru is cozy and delivers where it matters most, in the taste. Susuru Ramen Bar is a real neighborhood spot for ramen, and worth the walk and the drive! The Chicken Karaage is the perfect blend of moist and crispiness, and didn't feel heavy or oily. Some places serve chicken karaage over-breaded or drenched in oil, but not Susuru! The Mayu Ramen is really where it's at though. This pork-broth base ramen with black garlic oil surprisingly uses egg noodles, so it's a richer, different taste that certainly stands out. At the same time, no singular taste overwhelms the rest of the dish, and everything from the seasoned soft boiled egg to the perfectly charred chiashu work together in one harmonious feast. This is one ramen bowl that is literally good to the last drop! read more

We waited 30mins to dine in but it was worth every second. Poor worker was understaffed but even then made sure we were well taken care of. The food is absolutely delicious. The place is tiny and cozy so plan accordingly. read more
3.5 stars! * TAKOYAKI - great consistency, filled with octopus vs. air or fried filling. Not too hot, though, I wonder if they're made there in bulk and refrigerated or if it's entirely sourced. * SHUMAI - also a solid starter, the dipping sauce was good. Here's the disappointing part, my main course was NOT the ramen. * KATSU SANDO - lovely kewpie mayonnaise flavor and sauce, bread isn't too thick or thin and it also doesn't hold up against the power of the cabbage and chicken. Ideal amount of breading. This beats a Chick-Fil-A sandwich, for sure. I'll come back and try the ramen, I might have to revise up or down. Located along busy Hollywood Blvd. in Thai Town. Stiff competition from many other excellent restaurants within walking distance. Small tables and seating inside, maybe about ten pairs of people could eat in here at once. Quick, attentive service. I admired the crushed ice they use and how often they refilled my water, especially on a hot day (over 100 degrees). read more

When I'm craving ramen, Susuru will be my go-to. I came here on a weekday afternoon and had the place to myself. It is a smaller sized restaurant but they make good use of the space. Service was fast and excellent. The menu has great options from ramen to rice bowls and sushi, you have a variety of choices. I got their tonkotsu and shared the egg salad sandwich. The egg salad was good, if you are a mustard lover it does have a heavy mustard flavor. The star of the show was the ramen. Incredibly light yet creamy pork broth paired with the perfectly chewy noodles, tender cha shu, and soft boiled egg... simply perfect. I was satisfied and ended up eating everything down to the bottom of the bowl. Well done. read more
don't sleep on this ramen spot ahhh i wanna gatekeep this place so bad... but it deserves way more love than just a review and a picture. the mayu ramen is, no exaggeration, the best bowl of ramen i've ever had. the broth is umami heaven, perfectly heavy (reason why i ordered this), savory with a slight sweetness that makes it so addictive. i'm not usually a broth sipper, and its the first time in awhile i saw the bottom of the bowl. the chashu was crazy too, kudos to how yall made it! the sear gives it that perfect char, kind of like seared nigiri where you get both fatty richness and smoky depth in every bite. noodles were bouncy and chewy too, and as someone who usually prefers thin noodles, i might actually like these even better. the inside might not look like much, but wow... this ramen was bomb. service was quick and efficient too. UGH i ungatekept so like this if it was helpful! read more

Adding this review simply for fried squid legs. Wow. Obsessed. So much flavor, nice crispiness. Highly recommend! Everything we have tried here has hit so far! read more
This was a blind eat for me and I'm so happy I went ! Walked in randomly to a very tiny restaurant. Probably about ten tables. We got seated right away. Maybe about 15 mins later the place started filling up and there was a line at the door !! We got so lucky and it made me more excited. Server was really nice too. What we ordered *tonkotsu ramen- one spicy ($15) and one regular($14) silky pork broth, pork belly chashu, scallions, wood ear mushrooms, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts, & seasoned soft-boiled egg - Both were packed with so much flavor. You can taste the char on the pork belly. Yummy yummy. My friend said it's one of the best ramen he's ever had. *fried squid legs ($12) - I was most excited for this !! A must whenever I see it on the menu. It did not disappoint !! So crispy. Flavorful on its own without any dipping sauce. I really wanted to order another but ahem* trying to watch my figure hahaha *spicy tuna on crispy rice (6) - came with two pieces. The tuna was not fishy tasting at all. Rice was actually crispy and not soggy and pathetic. I enjoyed it all so much I'm planning to go back this weekend. read more
Susuru Ramen Bar - 5/5 Stars I ordered delivery from Susuru Ramen Bar, and let me tell you--it did not disappoint. Food Review: * Spicy Tonkotsu - The katsu was perfect, and the spice level was just right--not overwhelming but definitely not mild. Added extra wood ear mushrooms for an extra $1.50, and they were absolutely worth it. * Tonkotsu (x2) - Whether made in-house or not, the tonkotsu was fantastic. Added extra scallions to one for an extra $1.50, and it just elevated the flavor. * Thai Tea (x3, Large) - Perfectly sealed, well-balanced sweetness, and refreshing. Worth every penny * Veggie Tempura - Some of the best tempura I've ever had. Light, crispy, and flavorful. * Chicken Karaage - Absolute favorite! I've never had chicken karaage this good before. Perfectly crispy and seasoned. * Salmon Roll - This isn't a sushi place, and at $10, the roll wasn't my favorite. But let's be real--you come here for the ramen, not the sushi. Final Thoughts: I can't speak to the ambiance or in-person service since this was a delivery order, but I can tell you this: Susuru Ramen Bar is worth every penny. The ramen is significantly more affordable than most competitors, and the quality is outstanding. If you're craving ramen, this is the spot. Five Stars! read more
Had this ramen spot on my list of places I needed to try, especially after it was rated the top ramen restaurant in California by Yelp. So finally went there since I was in the area and am disappointed I didn't go sooner. There is a small, shared, parking lot which can be hard to get parking in, but there is street parking around as well. Was able to walk in and get seated right away. Our order was taken immediately, with both of us trying a Tonkotsu ramen, mine spicy, hers was regular. Now, the broth is where the party starts, and this broth was a little on the thicker end and full of flavor. The noodles were ample in amount and the pork belly was very flavorful. And the drained egg is always that bite of rich indulgence you look forward to with a good bowl of ramen. Pricing was also very reasonable for the quality of ramen it is. If you're a fan of ramen, put Susuru on your list of must trys for a quality bowl of happiness! read more

I only got carry out so my experience is based off of that. My son and I both got a bowl of Spicy Tonkotsu. I ordered right off the yelp app for pick up and it went through grub hub. First off the ramen was absolutely delicious!!!!!! Pork melted in your mouth. Feedback for the restaurant on improvements 1. I saw at least one review that stated it could substitute pork. This was not an option when ordering. There was also no option to choose what level of spice you wanted. Ours was not spicy at all. 2. When I placed the order the confirmation I suctioned it would be ready in 25-45 minutes. That's a 20 minute window!! I live 20 min away. There are about 10 parking spots in the plaza shared with other businesses. I parked in a red zone and ran in to get it. There is prettt limited parking in the area. I did call ahead and asked if they could give me a smaller window. The person who answered said it will be ready in 15. Hmm. Anyway. It was worth it but know better for next time. It is a little hole in the wall They usually have the best food. read more
Cute little spot with excellent customer service. Ramen was solid. I loved the broth, and the Chashu was good (I have had better Chashu though).. My egg was cooked perfect, I did wish it had a little more flavor (not the best egg I have had but still solid). My fiance liked his chicken ramen (he gives it a 7/10). The chicken karrage is actually one of the best I have had (Although my fiance said the batter reminded him of McDonald's chicken nugget). I would definitely come back because I liked it a lot. read more
